It still might not be to my taste, but if a book averages 4.21 stars over 378 reviews, then it can't be all bad.
I like reading reviews it gives me an idea if the book is worth reading. Plus I know when to stop reading one if it is going to give something away. Haven't had a problem yet.

I didn't read the reviews on Cuckoos calling and wished I did I would have saved myself some money. I do like to read the 3 stars and below to see why some didn't like it.
